Critical Reflection

Module Learning: Before entering this course, my goals are to improve my oral skills and self-confidence by having more chances to present in front of my class after the end of my polytechnic life, with appropriate body language and start to not depend on the slides or scripts to deliver an impactful presentation. On my first attempt without a script for a draft presentation, I could not make words and forgot what my sentences were. I was so used to looking at my scripts that I was able to present fluently and with confidence but did not put in the effort to understand the contents. Furthermore, I made the audience sound like I was not familiar with the topic and unprepared beforehand, thus they are not following my presentation. However, this presentation came as a reminder that I can still perform just like my presentations with a script if I prepare and practice more. Thankfully this embarrassing moment only happened during lesson time and not in the actual work environment. Since I...

Design Summary & Reader Response (Analysis) Draft 4

The article “A Little Robot That Cleans the Beach, One Butt at a Time” written by Monica Gonderman(2021), states that an Artificial Intelligence (AI) beach buggy robot named BeachBot, BB for short, has a very distinct goal, which is to clean up cigarette butts after the smokers discard them on the beach. Gonderman claims that the BeachBot “measuring about 2.5 feet wide”, helps to pick “some of the 4.5 trillion cigarette butts”, “10 cigarette butts in 30 minutes”, discarded on the beach with ‘its two gripper arms,’ and storing them into its storage section and unload manually later. Gonderman states that toxic chemicals and microplastics are dangerous to sea creatures, especially when the "chemicals" leak from the cigarette butt filter. Therefore, to attempt to save the situation, BeachBot creators Edwin Bos and Martijn Lukaart, co-founders of TechTics, “put the project into motion”. Gonderman also mentions that the BeachBot recognizes the cigarette butts by various images onl...
